Right this is reported before.

an error message says it can't find cygwin1.dll (it's here:
C:\Cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll)
It is not that easy. You have to use the
cygwin environemnt. Start a dosbox, execute the .bat file I attached to this
message as *.ba and after that you can start PSPP in commandline
mode.
>I've noticed that, after a frequency computation, a
file called C:\Cygwin\psppire.txt is created - which contains the output (but
the file disappears immediately after 'quitting !).
I guess this is the
only way you can copy the output before you quit. :-( But this is strange.
This file should be in your windows temp directory. Is there a temp directory
on your installation?
Have fun.
